Seriously?

Have I really not written in a month? Wow.

Guess I've been busy. And yet I don't feel like I have any super interesting updates to give...just been working five days a week. Work has kind of sucked. I like my job all right--on quieter days, I legitimately enjoy it, and it makes me think about how I would like running my own cafe/bakery at some point in my life. But I get discouraged/pissed off by inconsiderate guests, and coworkers that leave me with extra work...but more than anything, it's really difficult to stay positive about my job when the pay is SO TERRIBLE. Blah. Thinking about quitting and waiting tables again...we'll see. I've been visiting my family a lot on my days off...I've seen them nearly once a week for the past month or two, which I love.

So yes, busy. While I read and write a lot in my free time, it doesn't ever feel like enough. Every day, more or less, I find myself wistfully longing to stop working altogether so I can focus more on writing. Impossible, of course. I guess should have married a doctor (kidding). I am utterly terrified that my MFA applications are due in five months. Still waiting for that spectacular story to fall out of my head...

If you were stuck in a room with your ex for 24 hours, what would you do? I don't know. We'd probably just talk, or politely ignore each other.
What's your favorite kind of smoothie? Raspberry banana.
What's the beverage you drink most often? Coffee. And according to some random article I read today, it might be giving me cancer! It's been linked to that in recent studies, apparently. I'm really sick of hearing about how everything we do and come in contact with is giving us cancer...
What song are you listening to? I don't know what it's called...some trance track that Jordan is streaming.
You can read people's minds or see the future, what would you choose? Read people's minds. Having either power would be hard to deal with, but I think knowing the future would drive me insane.
have you read the twilight series? No.
What is your favorite thing to do when your at the beach? Depends on the weather. I like to swim, if it's really hot. But most of the times I've been to a beach, it's been too cold. In that case, I like sitting with my feet in the sand, people watching.
Are you ears pierced? Yes.
If you were to get a tattoo, what would it be? Something related to/symbolic of music, or Jordan, or my family.
If you were given a chance for free plastic surgery,what would you get done? I would be really, really tempted to have my ears pinned back...but I don't think I would. Jordan would be upset with me, and I think all my family would be, too.
Pepsi or Coke? Pepsi. Though I try not to drink pop. My coffee addiction is bad enough.
Your favorite boy's name? Ugh, I have too many! If I were pregnant right now, here are the names I would be begging Jordan to consider: William (Will or Liam for short), Sam, Alan, Alexander (Alex), Bennett (Ben), Grady.
Favorite Girl's name? Same story, too many. Elizabeth (Lizzie or Ellie for short), Alice, Margaret (Maggie or Greta), Fiona, Catriona, Marlena (Lena).
What's your favorite website? Monkeybicycle.net when I'm in a literary mood, cheezburger.com when I'm in the mood to laugh, facebook when I'm in the mood to waste time.
What's the song you have most on repeat? Somedays by Regina Spektor.
